Hi,
I think there is a problem with `mm-file-name-delete-gotchas', it
seems to run into an infinite loop (using a recent XEmacs 21.5[1]):
(mm-file-name-delete-gotchas "Makefile.in.patch")
Probably, the endless loop is caused by this call in
mm-file-name-delete-gotchas:
(replace-in-string "bla" "^[.-]*" "")
What's the best way to fix that?

To use "^[.-]+" instead -- fixed in cvs.
